"Beyond The Fringe" - the Farewell Performance

"Well, let me see, now. They've got the Republican Party, you see, which is the equivalent of our
Conservative Party. And then they have the Democratic Party, which is
the equivalent of our Conservative Party."

When we lived in California (we're Canadians), we used to be amazed by how people thought the Democrats were socialists. To us, it was exactly what you quoted above -- the Democrats were like our Conservatives and so were the Republicans. Shades of difference.

"Tai-wiki-widbee" is an eclectic mix of trivialities, ephemera, curiosities, and exotica with a smattering of current events, social commentary, science, history, English language and literature, videos, and humor. We try to be the cyberequivalent of a Victorian cabinet of curiosities.
